As educators, you need the daily leading of the spirit of light which immediately recognizes, attacks and does away with all darkening elements, even before they can come to rule over the little sensitive souls.

- Eberhard Arnold From a letter, January 1920Yesterday we again had about a hundred people in our house. The Letter to the Romans, which is the affirmation of justice, and the question of group living in community of goods, was our agenda…What we want is not an academic or student organization. We want personal, organic exchange between university people, middleclass and working class people, who are moved by Christ and lead a free life of inward truthfulness and love.

Yesterday's quote
February 02,2026
A turning is necessary; but anyone who would remain at the point of turning is not usable for the kingdom of God. The decisive thing is to see God’s kingdom, to enter God’s kingdom.

Not our inadequacy, but God’s perfect will is now the substance of our life and thinking. Therefore, from now on our entire interest goes away from ourselves, toward all people of the earth and of all worlds of God, toward near and far creatures of God; toward those who have died and those unborn. The interest of God’s kingdom embraces the times and spaces of all worlds of God, of the earth as well as of all other worlds with all their spiritual princes and creatures of light. That God’s kingdom may become reality on earth as it is real in heaven—that is what we have to live for. Certainly, for this a turning is necessary.
- Eberhard Arnold
